Chapter 288: Liu Yu is a traitor, and the princes want to watch the show
Liu Xie was about to drive people out, but Cao Cao still had something to say.
"Your Majesty, there is still one matter that needs to be decreed by Your Majesty. Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, was arrogant, offended the emperor's authority, violated His Majesty's orders many times, and brutalized Zhongliang, and implored His Majesty to issue an edict to remove Liu Yu from all official positions and titles, declare Liu Yu a traitor to the country, and call on the people of the world to punish him! Cao Cao said this with a serious face.
"Although there is a misunderstanding between King Zhao and me, it has not reached a very serious point, and Cao Sikong is making a little fuss." If Liu Xie had agreed to Cao Cao's request before, but now he felt that Cao Cao was not something he could rely on, so he couldn't agree to Cao Cao's invitation.
Cao Cao pondered for a while, but still said firmly: "Your Majesty, what King Zhao has done has been angry and resentful, if he is not severely punished, the people of the world will be unconvinced, and the ministers will be disappointed." ”
Liu Xie was once threatened by Cao Cao, and said angrily: "Cao Cao, don't get an inch!" ”
In the face of Liu Xie's anger, Cao Cao said without changing his face: "I beg Your Majesty to give an order." ”
When Liu Xie saw Cao Cao like this, he really wanted to slap himself now. Why did you believe in the plan to break away from Luoyang at that time, it is good now, it has been threatened by Cao Cao several times.
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Liu Xie understands this truth.
"Cao Sikong, you did a good job. I will agree to your request! Liu Xie said angrily.
"Thank you for your grace to all the people of the world." Cao Cao said with a smile.
Liu Xie felt that the current Cao Cao was very annoying, and he couldn't wait to see him again.
"Is there anything else? If not, retreat. Liu Xie drove people away again.
All the ministers didn't dare to speak, they all looked at Cao Cao, Cao Cao smiled, this is what he wanted.
"Your Majesty is tired, and the ministers will not disturb Your Majesty's rest." After Cao Cao said this, Liu Xie stood up, left the main hall, and went to the back hall.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" Cao Cao and others shouted loudly.
Cao Cao walked out of the hall with a large group of subordinates, looking at the blue sky, Cao Cao knew that his time had come.
And in Jizhou. Yuan Shao set up a position outside Liu Yu's camp early in the morning, waiting for a big battle with Liu Yu, but until the third pole of the sun, Liu Yu's army did not appear.
Yuan Shao felt that something was wrong, could it be that Liu Yu ran away. As soon as this thought came out, it lingered in Yuan Shao's mind. But Yuan Shao couldn't think of any reason to make Liu Yu withdraw his army.
Yuan Shao decided to send troops to Liu Yu's camp to investigate.
People are afraid of death, who knows if Liu Yu has a conspiracy, if he is punished, then his life will be a little dangerous.
No one was willing to go to Liu Yu to investigate, and Yuan Shao was also angry and scolded these people.
Yan Liang relied on his strong martial arts skills and expressed his willingness to go and investigate. Wen Chou also said that he would go with Yan Liang. Yuan Shao finally calmed down his anger, felt that this would be a little safer, and praised the two of them.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou walked into Liu Yu's camp nervously with a team of people. Yan Liang and Wen Chou both clenched their weapons tightly, ready to deal with the attack that could come at any time.
But what made Yan Liangwen feel strange was that the entire camp didn't talk about people, not even horses. The only thing that made them feel moving was the prisoner cart in the middle of the camp.
Wen Chou took a closer look and found that the person who beckoned to him was not the second son Yuan Xi.
Yan Liang also discovered this.
The two hurriedly ran over and found that Yuan Xi was already dying.
"Quickly go and inform the lord that Liu Yu has run away. The second son is still here. Yan Liang ordered the soldiers to go and inform Yuan Shao, and then free Yuan Xi from the prison car. Wen Chou saw that there was a water bladder in the prisoner car, and fed Yuan Xi water with his own hands, Yuan Xi was so hungry and thirsty that he drank the water in a big gulp.
When Yuan Shao heard such news, he rushed in quickly, and when he saw Yuan Xi lying in Yan Liang's arms, he immediately burst into tears.
"My son. Xianyi, why did you become like this? Yuan Shao rushed over and hugged Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi had just drunk some water, his strength had recovered a little, and he was lying in Yuan Shao's arms, feeling very warm. Yuan Xi himself forgot when he hadn't been hugged like this by Yuan Shao.
"Father, I'm fine. I'm still holding up. Yuan Xi said strugglingly.
"Xianyi, don't speak. Recuperate when you go back. You can rest assured that your father will definitely help you avenge you. Yuan Shao said comfortingly.
"Hmm." Yuan Xi nodded as he did when he was a child to Yuan Shao.
After Yuan Shao arranged Yuan Xi properly, he inspected Liu Yu's camp. Wen Chouyan Liang and other generals had already completed the entire camp, and they estimated that Liu Yu should have evacuated in the middle of the night.
"Why did Liu Yu run away so easily." Yuan Shao still didn't understand.
It wasn't until a few days later, when Liu Xie moved the capital to Xuchang and the news that Cao Cao was made a commonplace, that Yuan Shao knew why Liu Yu suddenly withdrew his troops.
At the same time, there was another will from Xuchang, and the Son of Heaven issued an edict to denounce Liu Yu for more than a dozen crimes, scolding Liu Yu so that he was incomplete, and said that Liu Yu was simply a beast. The most concerning point is that the will finally deposed Liu Yu from all official positions, called Liu Yu a traitor to the country, and called on the princes of the world to jointly crusade against the rebellion.
"Liu Boxuan, you also have today." Yuan Shao looked up to the sky and smiled.
The whole world was shocked, how could it be so good, the Liu Association was given by Cao Cao. This Liu Yu is also too careless. Almost everyone felt that Liu Yu had suffered a big loss this time, and Cao Cao was starting to get lucky.
The princes are all looking forward to Liu Yu's reaction, after suffering such a big loss, according to Liu Yu's previous character, he will definitely take action. The big guys are all ready to see a possible big battle between Liu Yu and Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao was also gearing up, as long as Liu Yu and Cao Cao had a war, he would send troops to annex the state and seize the territory that allowed Liu Yu to rise.
After receiving the news, Gongsun Chan of Youzhou was immediately entangled. He had just received benefits from Liu Yu, and now that Liu Yu was designated as a traitor, if he continued to follow Liu Yu now, he would also be found a reason by others to attack, and he thought that Liu Yu would suffer all kinds of blows, and it was impossible to save himself in a moment of danger like last time. Gongsun Chan decided not to express any attitude, pretending not to know, and stabilizing Youzhou first.
The other princes all complied with Liu Xie's will, and they all played to Xuchang's side, condemning Liu Yu, a traitor who had no king and no father, and there was nothing to do with the actual action.
The happiest thing is still Yuan Shu, this guy saw that such a thing happened in the Han family that made the relatives and enemies happy, and he was even more determined that the Han family was going to die, and the time for Yuan Highway to become the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan was about to come.
Yuan Shu began to build a large number of buildings, preparing to build a future imperial palace in Shouchun.
Except for Yuan Shu, a fool who was wasting his strength, everyone else was staring at Liu Yu's movements, ready to take advantage of the next turmoil.
And to the surprise of the princes, there was no movement on Liu Yu's side.
